Thursday June 26 will be an Open Session. We’ll have Arduino kits available and people to help with projects. We can also take a look at designs that people might be proposing for widgets off the 3D printer.

Ever wanted to try designing a widget that you could print? In 3D? We’ll explore the world of 3D printers and some simple design tools make this dream a reality. We’ll talk about how some of the less expensive 3D printers work and then try out a freely available design tool. Participants can take this new-found skill home and try designing something. We’ll gather at a later date to check out designs, perhaps suggest modifications and then try printing some. Prints take a while and do have certain limitations, but we’ll do our best to make your idea become reality!

Athens Makers seeks to build and grow together in creative and constructive learning opportunities – for fun.

Check out the web site for upcoming events. The plan is to offer a variety of events and workshops throughout this summer. Check out the posts above for details.

We’re in the process of fleshing out the opportunities for the summer. We are looking to offer workshops and open work nights on Thursdays from 6-8PM throughout the summer with a couple of longer workshop opportunities on Saturday mornings.

While there are certain themes that carry throughout the summer, participants are not expected to attend all of the workshops. Pick and choose what sounds interesting. We’ll try to make note if there are ‘prerequisites’ you need to be aware of.
